A Currency Symbol For The Indian Rupee
A public competition was recently started by the Indian Government: The Indian currency has unlike the Dollar, the British Pound, the Yen or the Euro no own symbol which is globally recognized and legible. Now India wants its Rupee to draw level with its major currency colleagues from all over the world. The current contest is to result in finding an adequate currency symbol to replace the provisional used «Rs». Only resident Indians are allowed to submit suggestions. The contest closes on April 15th.
This was really an interesting task for type design enthusiasts. It's a pity that the eligibility requirements are that restrictive. But for everyone who isn't a resident Indian some blogs like the German Fontblog started their own inofficial collection of suggestions made by readers. More interesting facts on the topic of currency symbols are provided by typeface designer Erik Spiekermann in an interview BBC Radio did with him lately.

“I had written to the RBI in 2005 saying we should have a symbol for the rupee,” said Nondita Correa-Mehrotra , one of the finalists, more marvelling at the coincidence of it all than implying it may have influenced the government.

From the day one I am closely following this great Indian bureaucracy tamasha . By profession I am concept head and brand strategy planner… in my career I launched national as well international brands
What I noticed and learned is… failing of brand and not getting recognised in market as a brand ….
Not only depends upon how you marketed that brand….but also how much efforts your creative powerhouse taken to create that image…
So to create a successful brand identity the whole process of brainstorming and vibes of designers should be clear from all kind doubt and blames.
But its oposit here in designing of rupee symbol case, whole process came under doubts from the day one because of its very confusing and unclear guidelines.
And lately RTI filed by someone from design field which exposed other discrepancies in short listing process too. More than 800 shortlisted entries were never been published in public domain…. while declaring eligible number of shortlisted design entries.
So, finally I set with my advocate and drafted down below Open RTI application… which any one of you could file it..
It takes us 3 working days to understand what really going and finally drafted all our queries on paper.
We divided queries in 4 separate RTI’s because some time authorities rejected RTI application by saying you are asking too much information.
RTI is a best tool to fight bureaucracy and injustice …making an application under RTI and asking for specific information, the department has to furnish the information within 1 month. If the applicant is not happy or all the information asked for is not provided then an appeal lies to appellate authority designated in that department.
Later on this becomes the base for filing a suit in the court.
Let me make it very clear here guys we the Young and creative mind of India is not so dull to follow a mute justice!!
We are lucky to have one last chance, as a RTI ….to make some positive change for the betterment of our Currency symbol design and by participating in this exercise we can get our dignity back…
So guys file RTI Now…
